ive been trying to do it for SO long!!! i've downloaded a lot of softwares imTOO DVD audio rip 4.0 the free version and a lot of others that are like that one but since i cant buy the software its useless -_- does anyone know of a software thats free and rps dvd's well without time limitations and stuff?? all help is appreciated
I somehow picked up a freeware version of Audacity which for me records the audio fine. I'm not sure if there is a site you can download it from, I have never looked. I have it on cd
Every now and then I can have trouble with the end result depending on the original DVD recording based on the master volume output, but make sure you set it correctly. For example, I found Elevation Slane DVD an easier audio to rip than Vertigo Chicago (original bass frequencies are much heavier on Chicago). Similarly with Sydney ZooTV, not the best quality audio to start with meant it was reflected more so in the ripped audio.
Every now and then I can have trouble with the end result depending on the original DVD recording and how it outputs, but make sure you set it correctly
I have Audacity, but I don't think I've ever been able to figure out how to steer the audio from the DVD into Audacity. Is there some sort of "line in" feature that I have to mess with?
(I updated my previous post) Also, I had that trouble too when I first got it. I didn't realise you need to set your recording settings (in Windows) on your volume control as checked for Stereo mixing as opposed to CD or microphone (from memory I think that's what it is - I am currently on a work PC which is set up differently to my laptop). Make sure you keep all the recording levels down to a minimum in Windows and similarly the Master volume in Audacity, otherwise the ripped audio will be distorted.
It's not a professional job, but if you get the volume right to start with it sounds just as good as off the DVD. If you're like me and don't have $$$ to spend on ripping software it does a pretty good job.

did you know? Johnny Cash is the main vocalist on the song 'The Wanderer'.
"I think the music is much better than the musician, but also the audience is as much applauding itself as us. One of the things people forget about these large concerts is that the audience have heard the records, it knows the songs from the radio and the music has become part of their lives. When they hear those songs their own selves are caught up in them and they are in some way applauding the connection."
- Bonno, June 1985
